TCU’s Jalen Reagor joins 2,000-yard club
TCU standout wide receiver Jalen Reagor joined the 2,000-yard club on Saturday. He did so in style.
Reagor made a terrific 37-yard catch in the second quarter, elevating on a ball and coming down in bounds on the far sideline to join the club. Reagor entered the game needing just 37 yards to join the 2,000-yard club.
“It’s a big milestone,” Reagor said. “I’m very appreciative of that. My career has been good and I feel like I can only build from it.”
But the milestone-setting catch came with a brief scare.
Reagor had a hard landing on his back as he made the catch down the far sideline. TCU quarterback Max Duggan overthrew Reagor, who elevated to make a play on the ball.
Reagor headed to the locker room just before halftime, but returned for the second half.
Reagor went on to have his first 100-yard receiving game of the season. He finished with 128 yards on seven catches.
“Like I said before, all I can do is come back to work every week,” Reagor said of his first 100-yard performance. “Keep running routes, keep catching the ball, keep getting a rhythm with Max or whoever the quarterback is and just keep leading. That’s all I can do.”
TCU returns to action next Saturday against Baylor in Fort Worth. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m. at Amon G. Carter Stadium.
